Hello! I am an easy going guy originally from California. I enjoy playing ice hockey, surfing, scuba diving, playing my guitar and of course traveling. Five things I can't live without? The ocean, my guitar, chocolate, friends and family.

I enjoy hosting people from around the globe and take great pride in delivering an excellent experience to all my guests! I am always available to help with any questions, suggestions, or booking for a restaurant or broadway play.

Very good experience. Johnny was extremely professional, and responded/ set everything up for our stay promptly on extremely short notice. The apartment was clean and well-set up for our stay. Also huge, comfortably housed all guests! Location was also very convenient. Overall would highly recommend!

The house was just as we expected. Very comfortable, large spaces, tidy and clean, perfect kitchen.. Johnny, our host, was attentive and responded fast to all our messages. I definitely recommend this flat and hopefully will rent again.

The apartment was exactly what we expected. Unfortunately it only has 1 bathroom. But with some organization there is a way around that. Johnny was very helpful and quick in his answers.
The place of the apartment is excellent. From here most places are within walking distance. Also the sub is only 5-10 mins walk away.
I can only recommend staying here.

Johnny was easy going and flexible about check in and out; contacting him and getting the key was a piece of cake. The apartment is an amazing "railroad style" (huge, huge) 2nd floor walkup. The photo with the old couches is out of date. The living area now has a large comfortable couch (with queen pull out) along the left wall and matching L-sofa under windows. The beds were all extremely comfortable and the windows and floors sparkling clean. The smallest bedroom (but still big by NY standards) can be made completely private (our night shift son slept there during the parts of the day). The kitchen was clean and is more than adequately appointed for a rental (there was even pinon coffee!); the bath is also functional and clean.
As noted by many others, the location is central to going just about anywhere in NYC either on foot, by cab, or by subway. There's is a Wal-Greens on the corner for last minute needs, a well-stocked wine and liquor store down the way, and Sarge's deli (excellent quality deli food, open 24/7) is a five minute walk for breakfast, lunch, or a late night snack.
Don't expect the Hyatt, the place has some age on it, but that just adds rich character.

We took a red eye to NY and Johnny was very accommodating by giving us a very early check in time. It was great to arrive and sleep! The apartment is in a fabulous location with great shops/restaurants nearby. You really are close to everything. I loved my early morning runs along the Hudson river and saw views of the Statue of Liberty and even ran to the 9/11 Memorial.
The apartment itself had a couple issues: the wifi did not work, we even had our host call the internet co, but this was never resolved. The microwave doesn't work. The house was clean, though not immaculate. The bathroom is very small, but functional...the bathtub paint is very chipped. Bedroom is great, with black-out curtains and a super comfy bed making for a great sleep. Would definitely stay here again.

Reviews From Hosts

It was a real pleasure to host Jonathan in our apartment. We didn't have problem at all. Communication with him was fantastic, he left the apartment in very good condition. He is a very polite and respectful person.

We always feel so fortunate to host fellow Airbnb hosts, especially those with rave reviews from guests like Johnny. We were delighted to host Johnny and his group of very respectful and fun-loving friends and will welcome them back anytime.

Jon’s apartment is simply amazing. The spiral staircase to the private floor is awesome. He is extremely accommodating and helpful; he knows the city incredibly well and will provide excellent suggestions for bars, restaurants, and sites to see. Most importantly is how centrally located his flat is. You are right in the middle of it all!
